The Dream: After running around like a madman and waiting through a long line for the bathroom, you discover that the toilet   you’ve been waiting on is exposed to the whole world and that there’s no toilet paper in sight.

What it Means: If you can’t take care of business in your dream, it’s possible that you’re blocked in waking life, Wallace suggests. You may have something you need to deal with —whether it’s a friend   makes you mad or a job makes you feel frustrated —and you fear it will be messy. So what do you do? Hold it in.

To Do: Learn to say “no” from time to time to people dump all of their problems on you. Research has linked people-pleasing tendencies to everything ranges from weight-gain to depression. “You need to take care of your needs first and foremost,” says Wallace.
